Chapter 21

"You're really not honest with yourself, Yin. Are you always this much of a tsundere?"

Kushina Uzumaki had seen the pleased look on Uchiha Yin's face, even though his words said the exact opposite. She had her suspicions, and she voiced them without hesitation.

"Kushina! Tomato! Red Hot-Blooded Habanero! You're the tsundere! Your whole family's a bunch of tsunderes!"

Uchiha Yin nearly coughed up blood when he heard her.

He had been trying to be considerate, only for Kushina Uzumaki to take it as him being a tsundere. As a man, how could he admit to that?

Uchiha Yin immediately fired back.

"Yin, don't call me by those nicknames, you stupid tsundere!" Kushina Uzumaki's face turned bright red in an instant. She really did have a talent for it.

That Uchiha Yin is just as awful as ever. Stupid tsundere.

Kushina Uzumaki fumed to herself.

"What? Tomato, Red Hot-Blooded Habanero—I'll call you whatever I want. Bite me!" Uchiha Yin said smugly.

"Ow, Kushina, you're actually biting me? Let go!" Uchiha Yin promptly paid for his words.

Without a shred of hesitation, Kushina Uzumaki wrapped her arms around Uchiha Yin and sank her teeth into his neck.

"I'll bite you to death, you stupid tsundere. Hmph."

Kushina Uzumaki bit down hard. Only when Uchiha Yin stopped struggling did she finally let go.

It was then that Kushina Uzumaki noticed the clear teeth marks she had left on his neck.

Seeing Uchiha Yin's face darken, Kushina Uzumaki gave him an awkward smile.

"Does it hurt? Want me to lick it for you?"

With that, Kushina Uzumaki leaned in again and ran her tongue over the teeth marks on Uchiha Yin's neck.

I'm so screwed.

Kushina Uzumaki had a rich scent about her, a natural fragrance he could only catch when she was close.

It was strong but not cloying. If anything, it smelled fresh, the sort of scent he could happily keep breathing in.

And with Kushina Uzumaki's little tongue brushing the bite mark on his neck, Uchiha Yin found his thoughts turning suggestive for a moment.

His body had yet to mature, though, so none of it showed outwardly.

Uchiha Yin wasn't into little girls and hadn't thought of Kushina Uzumaki that way before. Yet here he was, having thoughts like that because of her.

"Done licking?"

Uchiha Yin controlled his voice, trying to make it sound as cold as possible.

If Kushina Uzumaki had listened closely, she would certainly have heard something off in his voice.

But Kushina Uzumaki clearly wasn't paying close attention.

It was only when she heard Uchiha Yin speak that she realized what she had just done.

Kushina Uzumaki sprang away from Uchiha Yin, her face burning red and her heart pounding.
